Hydrogenated lanolin, hardened wool fat, is used in cosmetic formulations. The hardened wool grease acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface of skin and hair), emollient (makes the skin supple and smooth), skin care and hair conditioning agent (makes the hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume).
